It also contains screening questions to rapidly determine whether an enterprise\u2019s business model, operations or strategy are potentially in conflict with agroecology.<\/p><p>The B-ACT therefore assists investors and donors when it comes to identifying investment and funding opportunities. In addition, entrepreneurs can assess their business\u2019 alignment with agroecology and identify areas where improvements can be made.<\/p><p>The B-ACT helps with asking the right questions when it comes to assessing the social and environmental dimensions of a business, and the tool complements standard analysis of financial returns.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div

identify to what extent each of the thirteen principles of agroecology (HLPE, 2019) are reflected through direct and indirect activities of the enterprise. A very specialized enterprise may also select &#8216;not applicable&#8217; for principles, which do not apply to their role in the food system value chain.<\/p><p>The list of principles has been consolidated by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition, building on Nicholls et al. (2016), CIDSE (2018) and FAO (2018). Each principle is related to one of the three organisational principles for sustainable food systems: improve resource efficiency, strengthen resilience or secure social equity (HLPE 2019).<\/p><p>The ACT\/B-ACT methodology and framework was also a key resource for the development of the &#8216;Agroecology Finance Assessment Tool&#8217; by the Agroecology Coalition designed to track funds from donors. Please find the peer-reviewed study on this agroecology framework including a definition and justification of the 10 red flags (also used in the B-ACT)
